Saturday, December 13 Prickly Bay, Grenada We woke to partly cloudy skies and cooler with dark clouds east of us. By 750am, we had rain. It continued to rain on and off through 10 am. We enjoyed the cooler weather which mind you was still in the lower to mid 80’s. Typical the daily forecast […]

December 7, Sunday Yesterday I tried to use the engine to charge up the batteries. The voltage was low and the solar panels were not doing it. When I started the engine, the voltage regulator on the alternator brings up the voltage slowly and so the current follows the voltage slowly going up. I was […]
Saturday, Dec 6 Saturday it turned out was a day we mostly relaxed. We woke at 6am and listened to Chris Parker weather. He thinks the Christmas winds came and went before Thanksgiving this year, and I hope he’s right! We will be here for several days and haven’t started looking for a weather window […]
